This repository contains data on the plays of William Shakespeare.
The data is scraped from shakespeare.mit.edu, and processed into CSV format. The processing code can be found in the R/functions.R file. The website shakespeare.mit.edu states that the HTML versions of the plays provided there are placed in the public domain, and the versions here follow suit.
See github.com/nrennie/bechdel-test for an example of analysis performed on the Romeo and Juliet dataset.
Some of these datasets were used for TidyTuesday data in September 2024: github.com/rfordatascience/tidytuesday/blob/master/data/2024/2024-09-17/readme.md
